Hi everyone,
I'm new to this forum and need a bit of help understanding the benefits, I have just received  my first payment of LCWRA  BENEFIT and was wondering if I was entitled  to back pay as my first sick note was put in on the 2nd of May 23and was told I had to wait 3 full assessment  period 
Yours sincerely
Pauline

Hiya @pauline63 and welcome to the community!  

I'm just moving your post to a different category, so all our amazing regulars will be able to see it and give you all the advice you could possibly need.   

As far as I'm aware, back pay is usually paid back to when you first put in for LCWRA.

Hi @pauline63 - & welcome from me too. From what you've said it's possible no backpay is due. As you've already been advised, there's a 3 full month waiting period, with payment being then due in the 4th month (depending when your assessment periods are).
